What FW is currently loaded?

Where you seeing this same behavior before changing to wired connections with the satellites?

    Hi,

     

    thanks for getting back to me.

     

    The loaded Orbi FW version is : V2.2.1.210

     

    I didnt test the wireless setup in the same way as the locations and building wont allow a wireless connection at that distance. I could try if they are all in the same room but I guess that would be defeating the purpose.

     

    I have a netgear JGS524E switch to which both the router and satellites are connected.

     

    I have also deactivated Daisy Chaining but has made no difference to the issues.

     

    Thanks
